And the party bringing a case into this court shall print in his record, or in his brief, a complete index of the names of the witnesses whose testimony appears in such record, and the pages whereon the examination, cross, or re-examination is found, also the pages whereon any exhibit appears, and in cases at law the page of the record where any exceptions relied on may be found. [As amended July 2, 1890.] RULE 63. In proceedings for mandamus, where an order to show cause has been made, the respondent must answer fully every material allegation of the petition; and every material averment not so answered may be taken admitted by the respondent to be true as alleged. And in case no answer is made and filed as required by such order, the court, upon due proof of service of the order, will award a peremptory mandamus as prayed for, or enforce obedience to the order by process for contempt.
